‘77-‘78 vintage S&W 28-2 here. As much as I like S&W target stocks, they are just a shade too big for me on an N-frame. Shot this one recently with Ahrends Retro Targets that are just about perfect for me. Also shown with Tuff Products 8-round QuickStrips loaded 2-2-2 for a little easier handling.

Very nice! "But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead." Gunnery Sergeant Carlos Hathcock "If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it." Clarence Worley | |||

The very first handgun I ever bought for myself. Also, if I recall correctly, the very first center-fire handgun I ever shot. Dad had one, which was my primary reason for buying one. I remember the hoops he had to jump through in Michigan in the 60's to even be allowed to buy one. Never even bothered to try to get a permit to carry. Be careful when following the masses.

An M-28 with a 4" barrel was the second gun I ever bought, back in the late 1960's. It came with both sets of stocks, and I could never decide which were better for me, although one day during the riots of the late 1960's I put the small ones on and concealed it under a sweater to get to work safely. Unfortunately, I sold it since it was so bulky. Eventually I got an M-19 to replace it with, but the 19 was nowhere near the build quality of the 28. -------------------------- Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H L Mencken I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. -- JALLEN 10/18/18 | |||

Really beautiful piece. When I think of a revolver, S&W HP is it - great shape too! | |||

Many thanks, all! This one was indeed in excellent shape and I’ll admit - a part of me was slightly hesitant to shoot it; however, it was not bought to sit in a case or a safe, so off to the range it goes! I’m glad to see so much N-frame love here! "The sea was angry that day, my friends - like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli." - George Costanza | |||
